Admission standards:

            Admission of the students in the Veterinary College is executed by the Registrar through Combined Entrance Test conducted by the University which conforms the VCI norms. 15 per cent seats are reserved for VCI which are also filled on All India Entrance Test conducted by the VCI.

 Data on attrition and retention:

            The undergraduate students may drop out of degree program if they fail during the study period as per the guidelines of MSVE VCI-2016. At the initial stage, some students may get admissions in other professional course i.e. Medicine. The retention rate is, therefore, reasonably high. The postgraduate students, however, generally leave in order to join State Veterinary Services because of better pay package and good service conditions.
